Introduction: The use of lasers in surgical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) has gained popularity
as a minimally invasive approach to TURP. Prostate enucleation with both Holmium and Thulium lasers has low
perioperative and postoperative complications and good surgical results. In this study, we aimed to discuss the
efficacy of Holmium and Thulium lasers in provstate enucleation in the light of literature.
Matherials and Methods: The PubMED / Medline database was searched in the publications of the last 10 years
between 2009-2019 using the words ’’ holmium’ ’or’’thulium ’’ AND ’’ benign prostatic hyperplasia’ ’or’’ BPH ’.
Conclusion: HoLEP and ThuLEP are minimally invasive surgical methods alternative to TUR P and open
prostatetectomy with acceptable results. Understanding of the efficacy, safety, and complications of HoLEP and
ThuLEP will increase the interest in these surgeries and achieve better outcomes.
